Began Partnership: November 2018
Goal: When we began working with Cempa, the organization had recently rebranded from Chattanooga CARES to Cempa Community Care. Chattanooga CARES had been around for more than 30 years and had a very strong brand presence as our area’s HIV and AIDS resource. However, as the organization added programs, grew their scope of services, and adapted to meet the needs of our community, its name had to change to encompass the greater scope of care that was being provided.
Cempa leadership knew that in order to ensure community members were aware of this shift, they needed to put focused effort into their public-facing persona. So we kicked off a partnership with the intention of making sure Cempa remained top of mind for area residents.
Cempa’s PR program involves a number of facets, but is primarily focused on earned media and thought leadership.
Media Hits Since Beginning of Partnership (As of September 2024): 401
Awards Earned: 12
